Proper Citation: Biomarkers of Anti-TNF Treatment Efficacy in Rheumatoid Arthritis - Unresponsive Populations (RRID:SCR_004019)

Description: A consortium evaluating a new biomarker screening test that might help identify patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are unlikely to benefit from anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) medications. BATTER-UP will enroll around 1,000 patients being treated by one of several marketed anti-TNF RA drugs: Enbrel, Remicade, Humira, Simponi, or Cimzia. Through data analyses and predictive response modeling, the consortium aims to better understand which patients with RA will derive the greatest benefit from TNF inhibitors. The investigators in this observational study will attempt to validate an 8-gene biomarker set based on work by Biogen Idec researchers as likely to predict anti-TNF responsiveness in patients with RA. In preliminary results, the 8-gene biomarker set predicted with 89% accuracy individuals who did not reach European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Disease Activity Score (DAS)-28 good response after 14 weeks of treatment. The 8 genes included in the screen are CLTB, MXRA7, CXorf52, COL4A3BP, YIPF6, FAM44A, SFRS2, and PGK1. Biological samples and clinical outcome information will be used to confirm and extend the utility of previously published biomarkers that can predict response to anti-TNF agents. These data may also generate new hypotheses for further testing. The BATTER-UP samples and data will be established as a reference set for investigation of personalized medicine in RA. The study will be a resource of DNA and other biological materials that can be investigated for biomarkers in the future as new technologies arise.
